DEWALT DC490B 18V Cordless Metal Shear
360° Swiveling Head for Precise Metal Cutting
The DEWALT DC490B Cordless Metal Shear is designed for professional sheet metal cutting applications where cordless mobility and controlled performance are important. Its 18V cordless design allows users to work directly around the workpiece without the restrictions of a power cord.
The 360° swiveling head helps provide improved access in tight or restricted areas while allowing users to maintain a comfortable working position. The shear cuts a 7/32" strip that continuously curls away from the cutting area, helping provide consistent and controlled cuts during metalworking applications.
With variable speed up to 2,300 strokes per minute, the DC490B provides controlled cutting performance for sheet metal applications. It has a steel cutting capacity of 18-28 gauge and a minimum cutting radius of 5.5", making it suitable for a range of professional metal cutting tasks.
The DEWALT DC490B is supplied as a bare tool and is designed for professionals who need portable cordless metal cutting capability with improved maneuverability around the workpiece.
